Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

This seminar introduces students to academic writing in educational science with a particular focus on "education and history".

In addition to learning necessary scientific skills, such as literature research, citing and writing an excerpt, students are supported in finding their own research question and formulating their research project in an exposé, as well as conducting their own research and writing a final seminar paper.

In the seminar, students get to know the historical-genealogical approach as one (of many) possibilities of educational research. This course aims to sensitize students to the historicity of the present and the historical genesis of ideals, concepts, and their own scientific and/or educational practice.

Students will practice their academic skills by working with texts that deal with underlying assumptions and methods of historical educational research, as well as by engaging with examples of so-called 'Histories of the Present'. 'Histories of the Present' are a particular branch of historical research that aim to deconstruct contemporary truisms by showing how these supposed 'truths' came into being at certain times in certain places, in certain historical constellations and as a reaction to certain social demands.
